Listen up, collegiettes! Word on the street, and all over TCNJ, is that Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston’s newest flick, Just Go With It, is an absolute riot! Sure, a few cranky critics say this re-make has nothing on the original 1969 film, Cactus Flower starring Walter Matthau, Ingrid Bergman and Goldie Hawn, but audiences everywhere have been using the same word to describe it: HYSTERICAL.
With midterms in full swing and Valentine’s Day finally over, everyone needs some good laughs and a bucketful of buttery popcorn to de-stress. Sandler and Aniston make an unusual but dynamic duo in this romantic comedy that will have you laughing in spite of the mediocre plot.
Leave the laughs to Aniston and Sandler and steer clear of the millionth Big Momma movie to hit the big screen, Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son. You already guessed it – this movie is nothing more than 110 minutes of men disguised as women, hitting on oblivious college girls…not because they’re attracted to their intellect.
The Twilight lovers will probably go crazy over I Am Number Four, a science fiction-ish movie geared toward a younger audience … or anyone else who wants to gaze longingly at Alex Pettyfer for an hour and 45 minutes. If you don’t know who he is, Google him and you’ll have no trouble understanding why! Even though this is yet another story of a hot teenager with secret powers, heartthrob Pettyfer keeps us begging for more, but the plotline, not so much.
For everyone who wants a more serious trip to the movies, check out Liam Neeson’s action-packed thriller/drama Unknown. A couple diehard fans of The Bourne Identity say it’s a bad knock-off, but other moviegoers say it’s packed with surprises that will keep you on your toes the entire time. And who doesn’t love a movie about a guy with amnesia who has his identity stolen and is running from the law and everyone who wants him dead.
Check out the movie schedule and enjoy a night of laughter!
